Tasan 2022

Akishika Shuzo was founded in Osaka prefecture in 1886 and under the present 6th generation Kuramoto [Brewery Owner] this tiny brewery is creating some of Japan’s finest and most exceptional sake. Hiroaki Oku is both Kuramoto and also Toji [Master Brewer] at Akishika and his dedication and skill in creating quality sake shows in every bottle.

The name 'Tasan' is a reference to high acidity. The use of yeast #28 produces very high malic acidity in the resultant sake, in this case balanced with a sweet, fruit driven character. Made with Akishika' s own organically grown Yamada Nishiki rice.
